The post-flood cleanup in Chiang Mai was expanded as the water continued to recede on Tuesday, but riverside communities in Lamphun province were warned of possible flooding.

The big cleanup in Chiang Mai on Tuesday was underway in 10 areas along or close to the Ping River, including Waroros central market and the Night Bazaar, both popular with locals and tourists.
